Norman Thagard self-experimenting aboard the Space Shuttle. He conducted physiological experiments on personnel during the STS-7 mission. Self-experimentation refers to scientific experimentation in which the experimenter conducts the experiment on themself. Often this means that the designer, operator, subject, analyst, and user or reporter of ...
Self-experimentation refers to single-subject research in which the experimenter conducts the experiment on themself. Usually this means that a single person is the designer, operator, subject, analyst, and user or reporter of the experiment.

Much of the experimentation at Edgewood Arsenal surrounded the modulation of acetylcholine or acetylcholinesterase, or the deactivation and reactivation of substances which did the same. [1] These experiments represented a significant enough proportion of the total experimentation to earn a dedicated volume in the main experimental documentation.
The phrase Wizard of Oz (originally OZ Paradigm) has come into common usage in the fields of experimental psychology, human factors, ergonomics, linguistics, and usability engineering to describe a testing or iterative design methodology wherein an experimenter (the "wizard"), in a laboratory setting, simulates the behavior of a theoretical intelligent computer application (often by going into ...
